Microsoft is embracing Android as the mobile version of Windows

There are two different editions. The more popular runs a Linux kernel in a spun up HyperV instance, but the Windows-only solution has images built off of Windows Nano Server instead of Linux. Their docker images/apps are incompatible.

Ah ok, but HyperV is not available on Windows Home editions :( Do you know if it's possible to run Docker with high performance on Windows Home?

No, docker toolbox is broken. The best option right now is to upgrade to pro or dual boot.

HyperV is outstanding and I don't regret paying for the Pro upgrade to get it.

This, although I wish running a desktop guest Dev environment were a better experience :| The new enhanced session Linux turned out to be pretty lackluster.
